Painting Vibrant and Fun Oil Portraits Fast and Easy

Painting Vibrant and Fun Oil Portraits Fast and Easy

This course will teach you how to paint vibrant and fun oil portrait in a fast, easy and organised way. It is accessible for everyone, whether you have a large studio or just a tiny table. It is focused on basic oil techniques.

You will learn:

1. What supplies do you need (cheaper options also available)

2. A thing or two about colour

3. How to approach oil painting with help of values

4. How to mix colour for your portrait

5. How to paint in layers according to a reference

6. What to do after you finish painting (varnish, drying time etc)

I wanted to make sure that no one is scared of oil painting as it can be intimidating because there is a lot of misconceptions about drying time, toxicity, accessibility etc. I really would like to show that you can approach oil painting with fun and don’t have to be scared of passing out in your room.

A basic knowledge of portrait fundamentals are welcome here, as this class is not focusing on the actual head construction, but mainly on painting. If you would like to learn some fundaments on how to sketch a portrait, please take my other course - How To Draw Portraits.

However, if you do not know any fundaments, you are more than welcome to try this course as well! :)
